New to NetBSD
Hi.
I've just done my first semi successful install of NetBSD escept for a few problems. I was sent here to ask for help and to learn. setenv doesn't work nor does it exist in the release I have installed. ati radeon graphics card not recognized How do I change from XFree to Xorg? Resolution is stuck at 1024x768. I used the amd64 port, should I use the x86_64 instead? sound is choppy. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks. |

You have made it very difficult for anyone to help you here as you've provided no details of your system
Perhaps you should start by reading the netbsd documentation, you will find the answer to most of your questions there http://www.netbsd.org/docs/ Also read this http://daemonforums.org/showthread.php?t=596

Hello,
Quote:
As far as I know, there is no official driver for ATI cards on any *BSD system. You're stuck with whatever generic driver the X installation ships with. As ocicat kindly posted: http://wiki.netbsd.se/How_to_install_modular_Xorg You can change the default resolution in the X configuration file. You can also change them on the fly with CTRL-ALT-+ and CTRL-ALT--. Depends on what hardware you are running? If you are using an AMD 64 processor, then you can use either the amd64 or the i386 ports. By the way, NetBSD refers to the x86_64 architecture as amd64 in their ports list. Way too little information to go on. Try reading the Audio documentation from the NetBSD Guide and see if it answers your question. http://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-audio.html
